A model of Escherichia coli-induced pyelonephritis was used to study the effect of complement depletion in an organ-specific, nonimmunological inflammatory lesion in rats. In this model of a local infection, which can be considered to be nonspecific inflammatory stimulus, the depletion of complement by the administration of a purified cobra venom factor did not alter the course of the disease. There were minor differences when the results from complement-depleted and normocomplementemic animals were compared, but the composition of the inflammatory infiltrate was not greatly altered. Therefore, the presence of C3 and a functional complement system are relatively unimportant factors in determining the characteristics of the inflammatory response in a localized infection-induced lesion.
利用大肠杆菌诱导的肾盂肾炎模型,研究补体耗竭对大鼠器官特异性非免疫性炎症损伤的影响。在这种局部感染模型中,可将其视为非特异性炎症刺激,通过给予纯化的眼镜蛇毒因子来耗竭补体,并未改变疾病进程。比较补体耗竭动物和正常补体动物的结果时,存在细微差异,但炎症浸润的组成并未发生很大改变。因此,在确定局部感染诱导损伤中炎症反应的特征时,C3的存在和功能性补体系统是相对不重要的因素。
